'And on that tragic day, an era came to its inevitable end.' That's all there is.

Gunn now has stupid hair and learnt all of Gilbert and Sullivan

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Gunn's head now has added texture, is all.

Hi fellow Aussies and all, I think I'm back (computer wise) on a more stable basis, here's hoping.

Congratulations Jim, and I'm pouting 'cos I can't see the pictures either but it sounds like a fabulous trip.

Evil jimi, bugger, me too, and insent to your profile address.

ita, I didn't finish sending you all the pics I'd been collecting for your birthday. I'll locate them amongst the ruins of the old computer and send them soon.

To every idea a shelf...

Shit! I missed the season premiere of Angel last week!

Evil jimi, bugger, me too

Damn, if I'd logged on yesterday I could have told you they repeated it at 11pm last night because the reception went wonky in many areas of Sydney last week. On the bright side, they did it on the basis of fan reaction, so it seems Channel 7 have a human being working for them who's only disguised as an axe-wielding robot with a default program of C:ProgramFiles/Screw Viewers/EatPuppies.exe.

I liked the premiere and look forward to the rest of the season.

Aussies--we're captioning a series called "Kath & Kim." It was a hit there, yes? A very unusual mixture of broad sketch comedy and very spot-on human moments.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yep. Friends of ours sent us all of season 1 on video. I didn't know whether to laugh or be appalled for a long time. (I eventually decided to go with it.) They also sent us season 2 on DVD. Now if only we had a DVD player...

So you get to caption it? Lucky you. I wondered how the yumour [sic] would translate to an American audience.

Like BT (hows things going maaate), I too wasn't sure whether to cringe or laugh, the obvious word twists and mis-pronunciations get a little annoying when they're being repeated for the umpteenth time, but the behaviour and the lifestyle played so matter-of-factly, and the so-true-of-lots-of-people-everywhere-you-look factor got me by halfway through the season.

Bugger again Emlah, I know that I checked the Tv guide yesterday but I guess it was done before the 7 execs made the decision.

Re-posting here, where Fiona has more chance to catch up on it, that according to the Buffista Calendar today is Benno's birthday (and I can't believe he's two years old already!). Lots of wishes for him and his mommy, for a great day and a wonderful year to come.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Oh my goodness! Benno is TWO!

Congratulations!

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Happy birthday Benno!
